MacBeth Evans Dogwood Pink Depression Glass Sherbet

MacBeth Evans Dogwood Pink Depression Glass Sherbet

Here is our Dogwood pink deprssion glass sherbet so you can see what a neat pattern this is.  Dogwood is another pattern by MacBeth Evans who also made American Sweetheart and Petalware.  

 

Unlike American Sweetheart and Petalware, you are not likely to find Dogwood in monax white glass although supposedly they did make a few pieces in monax.  Instead, look for the pink shown here and green.  Green is more scarce than pink and correspondingly pricier in some pieces.  You will probably find more pink 8 inch lunch plates than any other piece; it must have been a premium.  
I wasn’t too thrilled with Dogwood when I first saw it but over the years this has grown to be one of my more favorite patterns.  The glass is lightweight and seems thin and delicate but this is one pattern that does not seem to get chipped easily.  
The large simple flower design reminds me of the beautiful etched brocade designs and it’s neat how the mold designer used the flower stems to camouflage the seams on the side.
We try to have Dogwood in stock in both our stores.  Also, why not try eBay for Dogwood depression glass?
